I’m My Brother’s Keeper

This is Darren‘s first literary work! Darren’s brother was the first police officer in the state of Florida to die as a result of Covid-19. As a way to commemorate his brothers memory and grieve such a great loss, Darren invites us into that deep trauma. This is a story that runs deeper than the pain brought from a pandemic. There’s a cry that’s birth from crisis. The media was only able to scratch the surface as there was so more more depth to the beloved deputy. This is a narrative that will bring healing to hurting hearts. This book is the end of a chapter that needs much closure. It’s a story about how true love bridged the chasm between a conservative evangelical preacher and openly gay police officer.



Urban Church Planting

DLM will look to provide an annual seminar for anyone interested in planting a church in an urban context. All you need to participate in this training is an expressed interest to plant as we will not be assessing you to determining if you qualify to plant. Our aim is to simply help jump start your journey. This seminar will be a day long intense and detailed crash course style training. We will provide valuable non nonexhaustive information on how to plant your urban church from the ground up. We will help you understand the tools need for how to build a viable core team and everything you’ll need to consider leading up to launch day. We will even point you toward more long term church planting networks that will be able to further train and equip you as you embark upon your possible church planting journey. (ie CCFTL church planting project, City to City, CU Church planting collective) 


Justice

In 2020 on the heels of much civil unrest DLM has launched the “Imago Dei Initiative.” This initiative is designed to point the church back in the the direction of preaching the gospel & doing justice. “Righteousness and justice are the foundation of your throne; faithful love and truth go before you” (Psalm 89:14). We’ll release consistent content toward this end from our partners at the AND campaign. We are also available to provide content/information  for any church interested in launching your own variation of the “Imago Dei Initiative” as a part of your discipleship infrastructure
